C       F  C     F  G  C

[Chorus]
C
I done laid around and played around this old town too long
                           F               C
Summer's almost gone, yes, winter's coming on
C
Well, I've laid around and played around this old town too long
      F              G            C
And I feel like I've gotta travel on

[Verse]
C
Chilly winds will soon begin and I'll be on my way
                            F                C
I'll be on my way, yes, I'm goin' alone some day
C
Chilly winds will soon begin, and I'll be on my way
      F              G            C
And I feel like I've gotta travel on

[Chorus]
C
I done laid around and played around this old town too long
                           F               C
Summer's almost gone, yes, winter's coming on
C
Well, I've laid around and played around this old town too long
      F              G            C
And I feel like I've gotta travel on

[Verse]
C
I wanna see my honey, I wanna see her bad
                   F             C
Wanna see her bad, wanna see her bad
C
Well, I wanna see my honey, I wanna see her bad
          F             G             C
She's the best gal this poor boy ever had

[Chorus]
C
I done laid around and played around this old town too long
                           F               C
Summer's almost gone, yes, winter's coming on
C
Well, I've laid around and played around this old town too long
      F              G            C
And I feel like I've gotta travel on

[Verse]
C
A-there's a lonesome freight at 6:08, comin' through the town
                              F                C
Comin' through the town, yes, I'll be homeward bound
C
There's a lonesome freight at 6:08, comin' through the town
      F              G            C
And I feel like I've gotta travel on

Summer's almost gone, yes, winter's coming on
C
I've laid around and played around this old town too long
      F              G            C
And I feel like I've gotta travel on
      F              G            C
And I feel like I've gotta travel on
